# Form.io Actions Reference
Actions are server-side behaviors attached to forms. When a submission is created, updated, read, or deleted, the server runs every action configured on that form whose handler and method match the current operation.
## Preflight — the Form.io MCP server
**Check this when you reach your first Form.io tool call, not when this skill activates.** The check is whether `form_list` is callable by you, under whatever name this client exposes it. If it is, proceed. If it is not, load the `formio-mcp-setup` skill and use it to help the user connect the server; that skill is the only remedy you offer, and this skill writes no MCP configuration itself.
**A missing server blocks that call, not the turn.** Reading this skill, answering a question from it, planning, and writing files to the working directory all need no server. Do everything that needs no server first and in full, then raise the gap when you actually reach the call that needs it. Opening with a blocked-on-setup message — or asking for a Project URL before there is anything to write to it — spends the user's turn on a step that was not due.
## Never work around missing tools
Do **not** work around missing tools by making direct HTTP requests against a Form.io deployment, and do not write a throwaway script that makes them for you. This library documents the whole Form.io REST surface, which makes hand-rolling requests tempting and wrong — it bypasses the guardrails the tools enforce and can
